Release parameters Version Network Security Manager software Signature Set Virtual IPS Sensor software Intel Security Controller 2.6 1

2 Currently port 4167 is used as the UDP source port number for the SNMP command channel communication between Manager and Sensors. This is to prevent opening up all UDP ports for inbound connectivity from SNMP ports on the Sensor. Older JRE versions allowed the Manager to bind to the same source port 4167 for both IPv4 and IPv6 communication. But with the latest JRE version 1.8.0_153, it is no longer possible to do so, and the Manager uses port 4166 as the UDP source port to bind for IPv6. Manager 9.2 uses JRE version 1.8.0_153 and MySQL version If you have IPv6 Sensors behind a firewall, you need to update your firewall rules accordingly such that port 4166 is open for the SNMP command channel to function between those IPv6 Sensors and the Manager. Manager software version 9.2 is not supported on McAfee-built Dell-based Manager Appliances. McAfee recommends that you use Intel-based Manager Appliances instead. Upgrade support McAfee regularly releases updated versions of the signature set. You can choose to automatically download and deploy the signature set in the Manager. Consider the following before upgrading to Network Security Manager version 9.2: This release is for VMware NSX environment only. From release 9.2, only IPS-VM600-VSS Sensor model is supported. For existing IPS-VM100-VSS Sensors, a new IPS-VM600-VSS Virtual IPS Sensor should be deployed.
